Both properties are implied by the existence of a polarization, for which a basic obstruction is that the odd Chern classes are 2-torsion. In a similar spirit we establish cohomological obstructions to the existence of arboreal skeleta and to the existence of Maslov data, exhibiting concrete examples to illustrate their failure. For instance, we show that complements of smooth anti-canonical divisors in complex projective space may fail to admit either arboreal skeleta or Maslov data. We also exhibit an example of a Weinstein manifold which admits Maslov data but does not admit an arboreal skeleton. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2503.09783v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2503.09783v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 12 March, 2025; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2025. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">40 pages, 19 figures; comments welcome</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.03764">arXiv:2408.03764</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2408.03764">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/2408.03764">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2408.03764">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Symplectic Geometry">math.SG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Algebraic Geometry">math.AG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> A universal mirror to $(\mathbb{P}^2, 惟)$ as a birational object </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Keating%2C+A">Ailsa Keating</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A">Abigail Ward</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2408.03764v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> We study homological mirror symmetry for $(\mathbb{P}^2, 惟)$ viewed as an object of birational geometry, with $惟$ the standard meromorphic volume form.

First, we construct universal objects on the two sides of mirror symmetry, focusing on the exact symplectic setting: a smooth complex scheme $U_\mathrm{univ}$ and a Weinstein manifold $M_\mathrm{univ}$, both of infinite type; and we prove homological mirror symmetry for them. Second, we consider autoequivalences. We prove that automorphisms of $U_\mathrm{univ}$ are given by a natural discrete subgroup of $\operatorname{Bir} (\mathbb{P}^2, \pm 惟)$; and that all of these automorphisms are mirror to symplectomorphisms of $M_\mathrm{univ}$.

However, data-driven neural operators all suffer from a similar problem: the data needed to train a network depends on classical numerical solvers such as finite difference or finite element, among others. In this paper, we propose a different approach to generating synthetic functional training data that does not require solving a PDE numerically. We draw a large number $N$ of independent and identically distributed 'random functions' $u_j$ from the underlying solution space (e.g., $H_0^1(惟)$) in which we know the solution lies according to classical theory. We then plug each such random candidate solution into the equation and get a corresponding right-hand side function $f_j$ for the equation, and consider $(f_j, u_j)_{j=1}^N$ as supervised training data for learning the underlying inverse problem $f \rightarrow u$. This `backwards' approach to generating training data only requires derivative computations, in contrast to standard `forward' approaches, which require a numerical PDE solver, enabling us to generate many data points quickly and efficiently. While the idea is simple, we hope this method will expand the potential for developing neural PDE solvers that do not depend on classical numerical solvers. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2401.02398v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2401.02398v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 12 September, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 4 January, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> January 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.04563">arXiv:2308.04563</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2308.04563">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2308.04563">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Algebraic Geometry">math.AG</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1017/fms.2024.85">10.1017/fms.2024.85 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Periods of elliptic surfaces with $p_g=q=1$ </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Engel%2C+P">Philip Engel</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Greer%2C+F">Fran莽ois Greer</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A">Abigail Ward</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2308.04563v2-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> We prove that the period mapping is dominant for elliptic surfaces over an elliptic curve with 12 nodal fibers, and that its degree is larger than 1. </span> <span class="abstract-full has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2308.04563v2-abstract-full" style="display: none;"> We prove that the period mapping is dominant for elliptic surfaces over an elliptic curve with 12 nodal fibers, and that its degree is larger than 1. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2308.04563v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2308.04563v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 5 June, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 8 August, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> August 2023. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">20 pages, 4 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">MSC Class:</span> 14J27 </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Forum of Mathematics, Sigma 12 (2024) e111 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.11407">arXiv:2106.11407</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.11407">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/2106.11407">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2106.11407">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optimization and Control">math.OC</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Probability">math.PR</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Asymptotically Optimal Idling in the GI/GI/N+GI Queue </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Zhong%2C+Y">Yueyang Zhong</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A+R">Amy R.

The solution to an associated fluid control problem motivates that non-idling service disciplines are not in general optimal, unless some arrivals are turned away. We propose an admission control policy designed to ensure servers have sufficient idle time that we show is asymptotically optimal. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2106.11407v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2106.11407v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 7 November, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 21 June, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> June 2021. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.04937">arXiv:2102.04937</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2102.04937">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/2102.04937">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2102.04937">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Probability">math.PR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Applications">stat.AP</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Stationary Distribution Convergence of the Offered Waiting Processes in Heavy Traffic under General Patience Time Scaling </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Lee%2C+C">Chihoon Lee</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A+R">Amy R.

The patience time distributions vary with the sequence, which allows for a wider scope of applications. It is known ([20, 18]) that the sequence of scaled offered waiting time processes converges weakly to a reflecting diffusion process with non-linear drift, as the traffic intensity approaches one. In this paper, we further show that the sequence of stationary distributions and moments of the offered waiting times, with diffusion scaling, converge to those of the limit diffusion process. This justifies the stationary performance of the diffusion limit as a valid approximation for the stationary performance of the GI/GI/1+GI queue. Consequently, we also derive the approximation for the abandonment probability for the GI/GI/1+GI queue in the stationary state. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2102.04937v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2102.04937v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 9 February, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> February 2021. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.02710">arXiv:2102.02710</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2102.02710">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2102.02710">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optimization and Control">math.OC</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Performance">cs.PF</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Systems and Control">eess.SY</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Probability">math.PR</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Matching Impatient and Heterogeneous Demand and Supply </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Aveklouris%2C+A">Angelos Aveklouris</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=DeValve%2C+L">Levi DeValve</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Stock%2C+M">Maximiliano Stock</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A+R">Amy R.

Our objective is to maximize the cumulative value of matches, minus costs incurred when demand and supply wait. We develop a fluid model, that approximates the evolution of the stochastic model, and captures explicitly the nonlinear dependence between the amount of demand and supply waiting and the distribution of their patience times, also known as reneging or abandonment times in the literature. The fluid model invariant states approximate the steady-state mean queue-lengths in the stochastic system, and, therefore, can be used to develop an optimization problem whose optimal solution provides matching rates between demand and supply types that are asymptotically optimal (on fluid scale, as demand and supply rates grow large). We propose a discrete review matching policy that asymptotically achieves the optimal matching rates. We further show that when the aforementioned matching optimization problem has an optimal extreme point solution, which occurs when the patience time distributions have increasing hazard rate functions, a state-independent priority policy, that ranks the edges on the bipartite graph connecting demand and supply, is asymptotically optimal. A key insight from this analysis is that the ranking critically depends on the patience time distributions, and may be different for different distributions even if they have the same mean, demonstrating that models assuming, e.g., exponential patience times for tractability, may lack robustness. Finally, we observe that when holding costs are zero, a discrete review policy, that does not require knowledge of inter-arrival and patience time distributions, is asymptotically optimal. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2102.02710v5-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2102.02710v5-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 December, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 4 February, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> February 2021. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">16 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.11546">arXiv:2101.11546</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2101.11546">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/2101.11546">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2101.11546">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Symplectic Geometry">math.SG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Algebraic Geometry">math.AG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Homological mirror symmetry for elliptic Hopf surfaces </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A">Abigail Ward</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2101.11546v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> We show homological mirror symmetry results relating coherent analytic sheaves on some complex elliptic surfaces and objects of certain Fukaya categories.

However, no additional assumptions on the quasi-metric or on the doubling measure for each factor space are made. To carry out this program, we introduce product $(p,q)$-atoms on $\widetilde{X}$ and product atomic Hardy spaces $H^{p,q}_{\rm at}(\widetilde{X})$. As consequences of the atomic decomposition of $H^p(\widetilde{X})$, we show that for all $q > 1$ the product atomic Hardy spaces coincide with the product Hardy spaces, and we show that the product Hardy spaces are independent of the particular choices of both the wavelet bases and the reference dyadic grids. Likewise, the product Carleson measure spaces ${\rm CMO}^p(\widetilde{X})$, the bounded mean oscillation space ${\rm BMO}(\widetilde{X})$, and the vanishing mean oscillation space ${\rm VMO}(\widetilde{X})$, as defined by Han, Li, and Ward, are also independent of the particular choices of both wavelets and reference dyadic grids. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1810.03788v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1810.03788v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 18 October, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 8 October, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Minor typos corrected, reference added.

We prove that a centered and scaled version of this process converges to a Brownian bridge, as the number of events grows large, which relies on first establishing a functional strong law of large numbers result to determine the centering. These results are consistent with the asymptotic behavior of a conditioned Poisson process. We prove the limit theorems over triangular arrays of exchangeable random variables, obtained by conditionning a sequence of independent and identically distributed renewal processes. We construct martingale difference sequences with respect to these triangular arrays, and use martingale convergence results in our proofs. To illustrate how these results apply to performance analysis in queueing, we prove that the workload process of a single server queue with conditioned renewal arrival process can be approximated by a reflected diffusion having the sum of a Brownian Bridge and Brownian motion as input to its regulator mapping. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1711.02148v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1711.02148v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 6 November, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Submitted to Advances in/ Journal of Applied Probability</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1709.01701">arXiv:1709.01701</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1709.01701">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1709.01701">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1709.01701">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Classical Analysis and ODEs">math.CA</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Characterization of compactness of commutators of bilinear singular integral operators </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Chaffee%2C+L">Lucas Chaffee</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Chen%2C+P">Peng Chen</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Han%2C+Y">Yanchang Han</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Torres%2C+R">Rodolfo Torres</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+L+A">Lesley A.

The parallel processing of jobs gives rise to synchronization constraints that can be a main reason for job delay. In comparison with feedforward queueing networks that have only sequential processing of jobs, the approximation and control of networks that have synchronization constraints is less understood. One well-known modeling framework in which synchronization constraints are prominent is the fork-join processing network. Our objective is to find scheduling rules for fork-join processing networks with multiple job types in which there is first a fork operation, then activities that can be performed in parallel, and then a join operation. The difficulty is that some of the activities that can be performed in parallel require a shared resource. We solve the scheduling problem for that shared server (that is, which type of job to prioritize each time the server becomes available) when that server is in heavy traffic and prove an asymptotic optimality result. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1505.04470v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1505.04470v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 13 June, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 17 May, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2015. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1504.00706">arXiv:1504.00706</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1504.00706">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1504.00706">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1504.00706">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Probability">math.PR</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Stationary Distribution Convergence of the Offered Waiting Processes for GI/GI/1+GI Queues in Heavy Traffic </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Lee%2C+C">Chihoon Lee</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A+R">Amy R.

As a consequence, the stationary distribution of a ROU process, which is a truncated normal, should approximate the scaled stationary distribution of the offered waiting time in a $GI/GI/1+GI$ queue; however, no such result has been proved. We prove the aforementioned convergence, and the convergence of the moments, in heavy traffic, thus resolving a question left open in Ward and Glynn (2005). In comparison to Kingman's classical result in Kingman (1961) showing that an exponential distribution approximates the scaled stationary offered waiting time distribution in a $GI/GI/1$ queue in heavy traffic, our result confirms that the addition of customer abandonment has a non-trivial effect on the queue stationary behavior. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1504.00706v3-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1504.00706v3-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 August, 2019; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 2 April, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2015. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">29 pages</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1412.2321">arXiv:1412.2321</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1412.2321">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1412.2321">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Probability">math.PR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Performance">cs.PF</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> On Transitory Queueing </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Honnappa%2C+H">Harsha Honnappa</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Jain%2C+R">Rahul Jain</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A+R">Amy R.

These are models that are not only non-stationary and time-varying but also have other features such as the queueing system operates over finite time, or only a finite population arrives. Such models are relevant in many real-world settings, from queues at post-offces, DMV, concert halls and stadia to out-patient departments at hospitals. We develop fluid and diffusion limits for a large class of transitory queueing models. We then introduce three specific models that fit within this framework, namely, the Delta(i)/GI/1 model, the conditioned G/GI/1 model, and an arrival model of scheduled traffic with epoch uncertainty. We show that asymptotically these models are distributionally equivalent, i.e., they have the same fluid and diffusion limits. We note that our framework provides the first ever way of analyzing the standard G/GI/1 model when we condition on the number of arrivals. In obtaining these results, we provide generalizations and extensions of the Glivenko-Cantelli and Donskers Theorem for empirical processes with triangular arrays. Our analysis uses the population acceleration technique that we introduce and develop. This may be useful in analysis of other non-stationary and non-ergodic queuing models. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1412.2321v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1412.2321v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 7 December, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> December 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Under review (and revision), Math. of Operations Research</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1404.2938">arXiv:1404.2938</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1404.2938">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1404.2938">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Probability">math.PR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optimization and Control">math.OC</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Staffing Call Centers with Uncertain Arrival Rates and Co-sourcing </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Kocaga%2C+Y+L">Yasar Levent Kocaga</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Armony%2C+M">Mor Armony</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A+R">Amy R.

Then, once the arrival rate becomes known, the call center may be over-staffed, in which case staff are being paid to be idle, or under-staffed, in which case many callers hang-up in the face of long wait times. Firms that have chosen to keep their call center operations in-house can mitigate this problem by co-sourcing; that is, by sometimes outsourcing calls. Then, the required staffing $N$ depends on how the firm chooses which calls to outsource in real-time, after the arrival rate realizes and the call center operates as a $M/M/N+M$ queue with an outsourcing option. Our objective is to find a joint policy for staffing and call outsourcing that minimizes the long run average cost of this two-stage stochastic program when there is a linear staffing cost per unit time and linear costs associated with abandonments and outsourcing. We propose a policy that uses a square-root safety staffing rule, and outsources calls in accordance with a threshold rule that characterizes when the system is "too crowded". Analytically, we establish that our proposed policy is asymptotically optimal, as the mean arrival rate becomes large, when the level of uncertainty in the arrival rate is of the same order as the inherent system fluctuations in the number of waiting customers for a known arrival rate. Through an extensive numerical study, we establish that our policy is extremely robust. In particular, our policy performs remarkably well over a wide range of parameters, and far beyond where it is proved to be asymptotically optimal. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1404.2938v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1404.2938v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 10 April, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2014. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1402.3606">arXiv:1402.3606</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1402.3606">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1402.3606">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1402.3606">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computer Science and Game Theory">cs.GT</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Systems and Control">eess.SY</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optimization and Control">math.OC</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Routing and Staffing when Servers are Strategic </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Gopalakrishnan%2C+R">Ragavendran Gopalakrishnan</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Doroudi%2C+S">Sherwin Doroudi</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+A+R">Amy R.

However, service systems are generally staffed by people. Furthermore, people respond to workload incentives; that is, how hard a person works can depend both on how much work there is, and how the work is divided between the people responsible for it. In a service system, the routing and staffing policies control such workload incentives; and so the rate servers work will be impacted by the system's routing and staffing policies. This observation has consequences when modeling service system performance, and our objective is to investigate those consequences. We do this in the context of the M/M/N queue, which is the canonical model for large service systems. First, we present a model for "strategic" servers that choose their service rate in order to maximize a trade-off between an "effort cost", which captures the idea that servers exert more effort when working at a faster rate, and a "value of idleness", which assumes that servers value having idle time. Next, we characterize the symmetric Nash equilibrium service rate under any routing policy that routes based on the server idle time. We find that the system must operate in a quality-driven regime, in which servers have idle time, in order for an equilibrium to exist, which implies that the staffing must have a first-order term that strictly exceeds that of the common square-root staffing policy. Then, within the class of policies that admit an equilibrium, we (asymptotically) solve the problem of minimizing the total cost, when there are linear staffing costs and linear waiting costs. Finally, we end by exploring the question of whether routing policies that are based on the service rate, instead of the server idle time, can improve system performance. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1402.3606v4-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1402.3606v4-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 23 March, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 14 February, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> February 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">First submitted for journal publication in 2014; accepted for publication in Operations Research in 2016.

In this model, customers from a given population independently sample a time to arrive from some given distribution F. Thus, the arrival times are an ordered statistics, and the inter-arrival times are differences of consecutive ordered statistics. They are served by a single server which provides service according to a general distribution G, with independent service times. The exact model is analytically intractable. Thus, we develop fluid and diffusion limits for the various stochastic processes, and performance metrics. The fluid limit of the queue length is observed to be a reflected process, while the diffusion limit is observed to be a function of a Brownian motion and a Brownian bridge process, and is given by a 'netput' process and a directional derivative of the Skorokhod reflected fluid netput in the direction of a diffusion refinement of the netput process. We also observe what may be interpreted as a transient Little's law. Sample path analysis reveals various operating regimes where the diffusion limit switches between a free diffusion, a reflected diffusion process and the zero process, with possible discontinuities during regime switches. The weak convergence is established in the M1 topology, and it is also shown that this is not possible in the J1 topology. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1206.0720v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1206.0720v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 7 December, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 4 June, 2012; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> June 2012. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Accepted, Queueing Systems</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">MSC Class:</span> 60K25; 90B15 (Primary) 68M20; 90B22 (Secondary) </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Queueing Systems, 2014,0257-0130 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1204.6559">arXiv:1204.6559</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1204.6559">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1204.6559">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1204.6559">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Classical Analysis and ODEs">math.CA</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> One-parameter and multiparameter function classes are intersections of finitely many dyadic classes </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Li%2C+J">Ji Li</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Pipher%2C+J">Jill Pipher</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+L+A">Lesley A.

Mei, by means of the Carleson-measure characterization of multiparameter BMO. Our results hold in both the compact and non-compact cases. In addition, we survey several definitions of VMO and prove their equivalences, in the continuous, dyadic, one-parameter and multiparameter cases. We show that the weighted Hardy space H^1(蠅) is the sum of finitely many suitable translates of dyadic weighted H^1(蠅), and that the weighted maximal function is pointwise comparable to the sum of finitely many dyadic weighted maximal functions for suitable translates of the dyadic grid and for each doubling weight 蠅. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1204.6559v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1204.6559v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 30 April, 2012; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2012. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">33 pages, 1 figure</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">MSC Class:</span> 42B35; 42B30; 42B25 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1204.1635">arXiv:1204.1635</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1204.1635">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1204.1635">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1204.1635">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Complex Variables">math.CV</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> A new class of harmonic measure distribution functions </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Barton%2C+A">Ariel Barton</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+L+A">Lesley A.

Let h_D(r) be the harmonic measure at 0 in D of the part of the boundary of D within distance r of 0. The resulting function h_D is called the harmonic measure distribution function of D. In this paper we address the inverse problem by establishing several sets of sufficient conditions on a function f for f to arise as a harmonic measure distribution function. In particular, earlier work of Snipes and Ward shows that for each function f that increases from zero to one, there is a sequence of multiply connected domains X_n such that h_{X_n} converges to f pointwise almost everywhere. We show that if f satisfies our sufficient conditions, then f = h_D, where D is a subsequential limit of bounded simply connected domains that approximate the domains X_n. Further, the limit domain is unique in a class of suitably symmetric domains. Thus f = h_D for a unique symmetric bounded simply connected domain D. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1204.1635v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1204.1635v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 7 April, 2012; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2012. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">50 pages, 7 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">MSC Class:</span> Primary 30C85; Secondary 30C20; 31A15; 60J65 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1111.1596">arXiv:1111.1596</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1111.1596">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1111.1596">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1111.1596">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Social and Information Networks">cs.SI</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Dynamical Systems">math.DS</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems">nlin.AO</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Physics and Society">physics.soc-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4790836">10.1063/1.4790836 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Multi-Stage Complex Contagions </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Melnik%2C+S">Sergey Melnik</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Ward%2C+J+A">Jonathan A.

The investigation of complex contagions can provide crucial insights into social influence and behavior-adoption cascades on networks. In this paper, we introduce a model of a multi-stage complex contagion on networks. Agents at different stages --- which could, for example, represent differing levels of support for a social movement or differing levels of commitment to a certain product or idea --- exert different amounts of influence on their neighbors. We demonstrate that the presence of even one additional stage introduces novel dynamical behavior, including interplay between multiple cascades, that cannot occur in single-stage contagion models. We find that cascades --- and hence collective action --- can be driven not only by high-stage influencers but also by low-stage influencers. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1111.1596v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1111.1596v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 22 February, 2013; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 7 November, 2011; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2011. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">12 pages, 10 figures.
